I thought this song from "House Of Flying Daggers" would be perfect for Zuko and Mai!. Apparantly, there's a story behind this poem and song written during the Han Dynasty by Li Yannian. When Emperor Wu heard the song he didn't believe a woman like this could exhist, but the description actually matched Li Yannians younger sister, so she was brought to court as a concubine. 北方有佳人，絕世而獨立。 一顧傾人城，再顧傾人國。 寧不知傾城與傾國。 佳人難再得。 Běifāng yǒu jiārén, juéshì ér dúlì. Yí gù qīng rén chéng, zài gù qīng rén guó. Nìng bù zhī qīng chéng yǔ qīng guó. Jiārén nán zài dé. In the north there is a beauty: Surpassing the world, she stands alone. A glance from her will overthrow a city; A second glance will overthrow the State. Don't I know she can overthrow the city and the State? But such a beauty cannot be found again!
